Brief Trip to Madison Wisconsin

I was in Madison the past few days to spend some time with my 2 nephews. I traveled the day after the big wind event that shut down the airports. On the well-known Picnic Point path (above) at the university, it looked like the stereotypical fall we imagine in Tucson, where there’s no such thing.

Here are Sebastian and Damian, my nephews:

I brought a few balsa wood planes to toss around; Damian just loved them:

After three days of throwing the planes around the yard, they looked in sorry shape were held together with scotch tape; they flew with a few parts missing. Damian has a great photo-smile, but the moment I raised a serious issue he didn’t like, he looked like this:

Basically, he looked like I was threatening to make him eat the plane for lunch.
